It's fantastic and has the fold crease in the middle which was typical of how Buscema filed these larger pencil page prelims.  The John Buscema storytelling is raw, but gets so much of it right and what needs to be emphasized.

Thanks for checking it out! I love his roughs. It amazes me to this day how much movement and depth he could get in just a few masterful squiggles, then how close the actual paneling always turned out. I've read published works where I didn't find the finished lines as fascinating as Big John roughs. I can look at these all day.

Great stuff! I love preliminary work like this and how you see the composition and storytelling in its raw form
